As I remember, they wanted to record the concert on video but did not get
the rights to do so from the folks at Carnegie Hall.
I doubt that one was made. If it was, they really had to hide the camera.
There was, however, a video made of the party the night before. It has a
lot of good music & some folks talking on it. Perhaps that is what you
have, Don?
